A study of the making of "The Golden Bough" of which the first volume appeared in 1890, and the twelfth and last in 1915. It is a vast and comparative study of the beliefs and institutions of mankind, offering the thesis that man progresses from magical through religious to scientific thought.

Diana's mirror; the ebbing tide; a meeting of minds; the king is dead; the sacred and the taboo; totems and totem feasts; sacrifice as eucharist; sacrifice as magic; the progress of the mind; the man of sorrows; the theatre of myth; the flutes of Tammuz; "Sexta Luna"; the dying sun.

xii, 240 pages, 1 unnumbered leaf of plates : illustrations ; 23 cm
